Possibly the greatest excuse to plan a trip to FNQ (Far North Queensland) in November – join the locals who are already training hard for the annual Great Barrier Reef Marathon Festival (1st November) which boasts a selection of courses from fun run to ultra-distances.
Bounded by the World Heritage listed Great Barrier Reef and Daintree Rainforest, runners will be delighted by the tropical beach scenery, surrounding sugarcane fields, valleys, and mountainous terrain.
